Well, few people expected it, fewer wanted it… but I'm giving you it anyway. It is, of course, Chapter 2 of Pillow. I can't believe the amount of reviews I got for this! Really, you guys are all so great!
So, in answer to you guys' main question, yes this is my first fanfiction. Is it really that good? When I wrote it I was thinking, "Well this sucks --"
Anyway, thanks you guys! You all rock!
I'm really worried about this chapter. I don't think any of the characters are in character. If they're not can some one please tell me? Apart from Yuki… I KNOW he's not his normal self.
So, here it is!
Pillow: Chapter 2Yuki sat in the quiet darkness of his room clutching Pillow-chan. It was a couple of hours after the incident and the poor boy was still in shock.
It wasn't because he had hugged Kyo, that was shocking, sure enough, but he'd certainly done stranger things while half-asleep… like that time he called Shigure "Snugglypoo-sama" or hidden from the Darlics in Tohru's closet. No, he was in shock because HE HAD ENJOYED IT.
All day, he had been trying to convince himself otherwise, but there was no other explanation for the happiness he had felt for the ten seconds between hugging Kyo and noticing Shigure and Tohru staring at him. At that point he'd ran upstairs, retrieved his beloved Pillow-chan and ran into his room.
Nobody in the world would talk to him after this. Nobody. Except maybe that 3rd year guy from school who tried to join the Yuki Fanclub.
"Oh, Pillow-chan! You'll always be here for me," Yuki whispered, "Like when we were little and you helped me hide my chocolate bar from Kagura."
Meanwhile, downstairs Tohru was sat with an ice pack on her forehead. She'd landed face-first after fainting from shock. Yuki nuzzling Kyo was pretty shocking.
Shigure was on the phone babbling to Ayame about the morning's events and Kyo was sat facing Tohru looking an amusing mixture of angry, concerned and shocked.
"Well, I always had my suspicions about Yuki, but Kyo! Who'd have thought it?"
There was a pause and then Shigure laughed, "Well OBVIOUSLY you'd have thought it Aaya!"
Another pause, longer then the first, and then "He is alone in his room Aaya. Who knows what-"
Shigure was interrupted by Kyo yelling "Dammit!" and storming towards the door. He opened the door and screamed.
"Oh, Kyo-kun are you alri- Oh, hello Hatsuharu-san!" Tohru exclaimed, quickly switching from concerned-mode to welcoming-mode.
"Ha-kun! To what do we owe the pleasure?" Asked Shigure in a singsong voice, but he returned to his disturbing phone conversation before Haru could answer.
"'Lo," said Haru simply.
Kyo, seemingly recovered from the embarrassment of screaming at Haru, decided to storm off to the completely person-free kitchen instead.
Haru seemed completely unfazed, which was an incredible feat considering he'd been screamed at, and Shigure was describing the contents of one of his "romance" novels over the phone.
"Where's Yuki?" he asked.
"Oh, he's upstairs," Tohru answered smiling.
"Ok, thanks Honda-san," muttered Haru in his usual blank tone before wondering upstairs.
After 5 minutes (2 of which involved finding Yuki's room and one of which involved finding his way back) Haru returned. The scene before him hadn't changed much. Tohru was still smiling stupidly at the spot Haru had been stood 5 minutes ago, Kyo was still sulking in the kitchen and Shigure was still on the phone. In fact, the only difference was that Shigure and Ayame were now pondering ways in which they could get Yuki into a maid's uniform.
"What happened?" Haru asked no-one in particular.
"What so you mean Hatsuharu-san?"
"Yuki's hugging that pillow he's had since he was nine upstairs, and when I asked him what's gone on today he blushed," said Haru in a confused tone that was rarely heard from him.
From the kitchen, Kyo screamed "Damn rat!" before storming into the living room, marching up to Haru and saying in a low and menacing tone "Yuki isn't in an odd mood, he is not hugging anything and he did not hug me and nuzzle my neck!"
Haru blinked, took a moment to register what Kyo had said and then happily said, "So he is gay! Or bisexual at least…" Haru looked happy for a moment more, before suddenly returning to his normal emotionless face and asking, "So Kyo, you and Yuki are what? Relationship-wise I mean…"
"Damn you!" yelled Kyo. He then ran off to his cow-free haven, the roof.
Shigure laughed at this, which seemed to make Tohru snap out of her daydream (about Kyo and Yuki!) She then nervously chased after Kyo.
Haru stood still for a minute more and finally decided to go back to Yuki's room.
"Yuki?
"Yes Haru?" Yuki's voice sounded sad and bewildered, and his eyes were puffy.
"Have… have you been crying?" Asked a wide-eyed Haru.
Yuki blinked, buried his head into Pillow-chan and muttered a sad "yes."
Haru sat down next to Yuki and stroked his soft, silvery hair. Yuki was vaguely disturbed by this, but put up with it anyway.
"I heard you've been nuzzling Kyo," said Haru, mildly hoping for confirmation that this was true, and possibly a large "Yuki likes guys" billboard.
"I was half-asleep, but… yeah. And… Haru, can you keep a secret?" Yuki muttered. He removed his head from the comfortable depths of Pillow-chan, clasped her to his chest rested his confused head on Haru's shoulder.
"Well, yeah. Yuki, of course I can!"
"Haru… I liked it. And I think… I think I like Kyo!"
Oh, the drama! Well, I have more to write but it may have to wait until half term (Half term starts this Friday for me btw.) My school's forcing the year 8s to do a load of pointless rubbish. My school sucks, I had to do a maths test I didn't even know I had to do today, and so my scores are going to be below what they should. --
Enough of my babbling, how was the 2nd chapter? Hope I get s'more reviews (Just one makes me feel special, the 15 so far are just WOW!)
